I hate when this happens...

So I'm working a lot on a month long trial these days, so I'm getting late starts and working overnights. That's showbiz!

So I get up late, get my act together today, and take advantage of a couple of hours this afternoon to run some errands before heading into the office for the night.

So I'm on the streets of Manhattan and glance at my wrist to see what time it is on my trusty 14060, and it's not there!

I forgot to wear my watch!

I hate when that happens.

That is annoying. Happens to me every once in a while, and I always have a slight panick attach wondering if it slipped off my wrist

It happens to me all the time... Another thing that happens to me is that I wear my watch on a task that I normally wouldnt want to wear my watch at like digging a ditch on the yard or mechanical work of some sort.... I know it shouldnt be a big deal but I really dont want to hit it hard on something!

It's not too late to pop into a boutique and pick up a new one. ;)

Either that or the guy you bumped into the subway relieved you of it.

Worst is you take it off briefly at the office and forget to put it back on later and realize that it's pretty much just sitting out in there in public. LOL

If you do, you definitely need to go platinum.

It hasn't happened to me yet. When it does I'll have more to worry about than the watch.

I don't know if I've ever forgotten to wear a watch. I don't think so. It is considerably better than "I got home and it wasn't there either."
